THE HYPE TRAIN FUELS ME TODAY @KingBrodd!!! While it’s not a major article (no new cities or characters mentioned), this is definitely making me believe that TOW is closer than many like to believe. Looks like it might be time to go back to being The Loyal Son of Khemri instead of my Twisted self….. The second I saw the post I came to TGA knowing you'd be hyped over it. Congrats my friend, genuinely happy to know you'll be enjoying the skeletal hordes of Settra at some point! 3 hours ago, Chikout said: Now, if GW announced that they were doing a full hafling army for the old world (or for AoS) I would be all in. There's already a battletome after all. Agreed, Halflings are aside of Chorfs my most wishlisted army (and if possible even more implausible!).

I was hoping it would finally match the lore and have some sort of AOE damage. But these rules are really good. And now we will have an amazing & playable model. Hardly a reason to be concerned.

I'm curious if we could be expecting a skink resculpt too at this rate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to think they had a chance to arrive in the Mortal Realms some day […] And they did. There are virtually two armies from WFB that were fully and properly AoSsified: High Elves and Tomb Kings. Some may not like the result (I don’t like the Lumineth half as much as I loved my High Elves) but what happened, happened. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gitzdee Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 (edited) I love the new huge banner thing. Makes me feel like the BSB is back in business. Edit: also, what if Orruk Warclans is just a temporary fix book like LoN and we are in for a treat this edition.

OBR have some similarities to Tomb Kings, but are still very different in their overall aesthetics, lore and feel. Most importantly to me, Tomb Kings have this mood of fallen splenour and long-lost glories, while OBR are Nagash's new ideal for Death. Because of this, they really don't resonate with me in the same way. But the differences between them have also lead to collect both, so it's not like I dislike what either faction is doing. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elfhead Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 Maybe the new saurus are a dual kit with tempel guard? Would make sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the key thing, they took the idea and dialed it up to 11 with on AoS weirdness and it works for some and doesn't for others but they're both clearly High Elves and Tomb Kings. I think the TOW armies will get AoS rules as legends rules so you can play your Tomb Kings alongside Ossiarchs (which would be cool to represent a City of Nagash). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that; the feel of Lumineth is also very different from HE - for me. But I cannot imagine them both in AoS (yes, I think that keeping the Phoenix Guard afloat is a ridiculous idea). The same goes for TK and OBR - they occupy the same niche. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I definitely see your perspective here, but I personally feel like OBR would work *especially* well as a foil for Tomb Kings. What better target to reap bones from than a kingdom made up almost entirely of living skeletons that *hate Nagash*? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chikout Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 That's a terrific mini but I'm really confused by GW's marketing. Why are they skipping the 5 spring battletomes? Presumably there are at least 5 minis to show. Why not show one of those? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If FEC get a sizable update like Whitefang suggested, then that means they are probably not among these 5 tomes. So the Death tomes would be OBR and Soulblight. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't some webstore already update some of their pictures for Ossiarchs and Soulblight to the 3rd edition box ones? That would pretty much confirm it.

They're finally showing their larger releases in advance, which is a good thing. They know the single mini releases don't bring much hype, so they revealed something substantial rather than a single hero which is a disappointment to most fans (especially the players of said faction).

DinoJon Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 Okay so looks like no Saurus Guard redos and no Skinks... So lets go with 1. Astrolith Bearer 2. Kroxigors 3. Salamander/Razordons 4. Big New monster 5. Saurus Cavalry Would be impressive if we got all of this 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
